@@holgerschmidt2297 I put it together over a long period. The jackets were originally made by Sutlers UK but I modified them heavily, adding extra braid, buttons and fur. The trousers are from a British Lancer, and so on 😅 It took a long time, lots of money and sewing.

@@Theduckwebcomics okay thanks

Thankyou xx

Haha! The uniform is my own idealised creation, taking features I want from wherever, which is actually ironically more period accurate than something that follows a manual precisely because an officer with wealth and a bit of rank would tend to do exactly that in the field if they had the independence and freedom to do that. That's not a shako but my own style of busby (or Kolpak or Pelzmutze) made with the feathers from a Scot's Piper's feather bonnet. The skull is a is a standard Prussian totenkopf. I DO however also have a bell-top shako with a feathered crest, and the skull on that is from the black Brunswickers, another Napoleonic German force- not a jolly roger :)

That makes you a national treasure ❤️

@@Theduckwebcomics Thank you for saying that! ☺️

Thanks for the comment ☺️ I haven't really been worried about about that sort of thing for a while and now I just use it as a podcast backup 😅 I might do more hussar stuff

I love the redbums ❤️

You're absolutely right, that's a great suggestion!

Thankyou! I had to assemble it myself from parts. The jackets were initially made by Sutkers UK but I had to do a lot of alterations and additions.

The boys I typically wear are ankle boots, these wear popular from around the end of the Napoleonic war, to match the civilian fashions of the day.

Happy new year too you too!

The best periods of the series. That was the look that created the characters!

Hahaha! Yeah it's weird that my account is combined with my comics stuff and that 😅

@@TheduckwebcomicsFr now you should probably attend a reenactment and film it 🤔

Thankyou so much, that's kind of you to say 😊

@@Theduckwebcomics I want to make a hussar uniform and searched video about it on your channel, but I didn't found it. Can you give me some advice about sewing those clothes?

​@@Marta-se5do . There's a polish channel where they advertise the company that sells them.... I think they sell the patterns as well.

Thankyou

Thankyou 😁

Thankyou! It used to be but these days I get it in and off very quickly 😅 In fact the other day I was knocked unconcious in a riding accident and I totally stripped it all off, put it all neatly away and dressed myself in my normal clothes again by the time my brain started working again 😅

Thankyou ❤️

It's a fantasy on the idea of "the Hussar", so it's a mix of a few styles in order to be my own perfect hussar. Mainly here there's Lieb Hussar and a bit of the French Hussurd Du Mort. The style is the first half of the 19th century, after Waterloo. ... 1815- 1830, when uniforms became a lot more decorated.

Thanks man 😁

Happy new year!

Merry Christmas! The 11th is a beautiful style!

@@Theduckwebcomics Thanks mr duck, it is great ....bought some models of napoleonic era french hussars to paint over the winter,im a wargamer,and the pelease...is that the right word..that those chaps wear...nobody has the guts these days...i bet even adam ant would be impressed!

Oh indeed. Unashamedly 😁

Thankyou 😁 Yes, I have a number of originals and one replica. They're not that different in weight though the replica isn't as nice to swing. I used to ride a lot but I've never ridden in this outfit.

@@Theduckwebcomics pity you havn't ridden in full splendour! As to replicas, I found them always a lot more heavy than the original swords, usually being made for the looks only and not for serious action, where weight, blade quality and balance will win the day (or just save your life, basically the same...) Many replicas being simply an insult to the fencer...
